What’s Anxiety Got to Do with It? How Anxiety and Bereavement Complicate One Another
Clinicians and researchers alike have long-known that anxiety and other mental health issues can significantly complicate the experience of bereaved loved ones. Loss often engenders its own fears especially when death was by traumatic circumstances but any bereavement can be made more complex by an underlying anxiety disorder. In this fast-paced practical workshop, we’ll overview the most common manifestations of anxiety and discuss how to address these in caring for bereaved individuals.
Objectives. At the conclusion of this workshop, participants will be able to:
- Describe the clinical criteria for Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Panic Disorder, and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder
- Utilize an effective means to assess for anxiety to create a treatment plan or to refer to other professionals, depending on the participant’s own training and experience
- Apply specific counseling and support strategies in caring for anxious bereaved individuals
